Definitions
- Group B Streptococcus (Streptococcus agalactiae or GBS) is a Gram positive bacteria and is a widespread commensal of the human genital and intestinal tract. GBS has emerged as an important cause of human disease and is now the most common cause of life-threatening invasive bacterial infections (septicaemia, pneumonia, and meningitis) during the neonatal period (Gibbs et al. 2004. Obs Gvn 104:1062-76). and a major cause of mortality in immunocompromised adults (Farley. 2001. Clin lnf Pis. 33:556-61).
- Newborns infections result either from the passage of the bacterium through the placental membrane or by the inspiration of the bacterium of infected vaginal flora during delivering.
- GBS adhere to a variety of human cells including vaginal epithelium, placental membranes, repiratory tract epithelium and blood-brain barrier endothelium.
- the types Ia, Ib, II, III, and V are responsible for the majority of invasive human GBS disease.
- Serotype III GBS is particularly important because it causes a significant percentage of early onset disease (i.e. infection occurring within the first week of life) and the majority of late-onset disease (i.e. infection occurring after the first week of life).
- the capsular serotype III is responsible for most cases (80%) of neonate GBS meningitis.
- Cationic antimicrobial peptides play a fundamental role in innate immune defences, both through direct antimicrobial activity and through immunomodulatory effects.
- the CAP dominating targets are bacterial membranes and the killing reaction must be faster than the growth rate of the bacteria.
- Clinical cases show that deficiencies in these peptides give severe symptoms.
- the activities of the cationic peptides against S. agalactiae increase as the bacterial electropositive charge surface decreases.
- the major described virulence factors of GBS are the polysaccharide capsule, the lipotechoic acid, the hemolysin, the C5-peptidase, the superoxide dismutase and the protease CspA (Lindahl et al, 2005, Clinical Mic review).
- STM signature-tagged mutagenesis
- the aim of the invention is to provide new genes implicated in the GBS virulence.
- the inventors report the construction, by STM method and screening for cell wall defects, an insertion mutant library of a serotype III S. agalactiae. Colistin, an antimicrobial peptide and Novobiocin (an antibiotic) screening leads to the identification of 97 genes. 27 mutants were tested in an animal model and 13 were less virulent than the wild type strain. 8 new genes were identified that are important for GBS virulence. These genes are new target for antimicrobial drugs.
- the invention thus relates to a method for the insertion mutagenesis of GBS comprising the use of vector pTCV-Tase (see Material and Methods).
- the invention also relates to an in vitro Screening Method of the mutants library comprising using colistine as a mimick of innate immunity components that are the antibacterial cationic peptides and using novobiocine to detect mutant with defect in outer membrane permeability.
- the methods of Combination of the in vitro screening results with in vivo effect of mutations, to identify target proteins having en essential function for in vivo virulence are also part of the invention.
- the invention also relates to the proteins sequences of these targets in GBS as useful to find drugs preventing bacterial dissemination in the host and called antivirulence targets.
- Another object of the invention relate to the proteins sequence in GBS and homologous sequences in gram positive bacteria with at least 22% identify on the full length seq and 25% identity in a 100 continuous amino acid sequence.
- homologous proteins present in Streptococcus Pneumoniae (SPN), to find drugs for treating Gram positive infections.
- the invention thus relates to a biochemical assay for screening inhibitors for GBS characterized in that they are based either on luminescent ATP or fluorescent ADP detection.
- the biochemical assay based on luminescent detection comprises:
- the biochemical assay based on fluorescent detection comprises:
- a substrate mixture comprising GBS, myelin basic protein; ATP, pyruvate and NaDH,
- E. coli strain TOP10 (Invitrogen) was used for DNA cloning and plasmid propagation. E. coli were grown on liquid or solid Luria-Bertani (LB) medium at 37°C.
- Streptococcus agalactiae NEM316 whose sequence has been determined by the Pasteur lnstitut (Glaser et al, 2002. MoI Mic. 45:1499-513), is responsible for a fatal septicaemia and is of to the capsular serotype III (Gaillot et al 1997 gene 204:213-218).
- GBS strains were grown in Todd-Hewitt (TH) broth or agar (Difco Laboratories, Detroit, Ml) at 37 0 C, unless otherwise specified.
- kanamycin Km
- Em erythromycin
- Genomic streptococcal DNA was isolated from overnight culture in TH supplemented with 0.6% glycine. Bacteria were harvested for 5 min at 5000xg then resuspended in 600 ⁇ l of cold PBS. Bacterial suspension was added to lysing Matrix B (QBiogen) and bacteria were mechanically disrupted using a Fast Prep instrument (Qbiogen). After centrifugation at 5000xg for 5 min, the supernatant was transferred to a fresh tube and DNA was extracted with the Wizard ® Genomic DNA Purification Kit (Promega) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Plasmid DNA preparations were isolated using Wizard ® Plus Minipreps DNA Purification System (Promega).
- ATATCCATGGATGGAAAAAAAGGAATTTCGTG-S' was used to amplify a promoterless Hima ⁇ transposase C9 gene from the DNA of the vector pET29C9 (Lampe et al. 1996 EMBO J. 15:5470-5479). After digestion with ⁇ /col and Pst ⁇ (sequence in bold), this amplicon was cloned in the multiple cloning site of pTCV-erm deleted for aphA-3.
- Electroporation of S. agalactiae Bacteria were grown overnight at 37°C in TH supplemented with 0.6% glycine. The culture was diluted to 1 :10 into 500 ml TH with 0.6% glycine and allowed to grow until the optical density at 600 nm (OD 6 oo) was between 0.3 and 0.5. The culture was harvested by centrifugation at 5000 rpm for 10 min, washed twice in 100 ml of cold sterile washing buffer (9 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 1 mM MgCI 2 , 0.5 M sucrose, pH7.4), and resuspended in 3 ml of washing buffer plus 10% glycerol, and frozen in aliquots or used directly.
- cold sterile washing buffer 9 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 1 mM MgCI 2 , 0.5 M sucrose, pH7.4
- plasmid DNA 500 ng to 1 ⁇ g of plasmid DNA was added to 75 ⁇ l of the cell suspension on ice, and transferred to prechilled 2-mm electroporation cuvettes (BioRad Laboratories) and electroporated at 25 ⁇ F, 2500 V and 200 ⁇ with a Bio-Rad Gene Pulser apparatus.
- the suspension was diluted immediately into 1 ml of TH with 0.25 M sucrose and incubated for 3h at 37 0 C and then plated on TH agar plates containing the appropriate antibiotic.
- Transformation of S. pneumoniae Pneumococcal cells were transformed according to the protocol described by Echenique et al. Briefly, bacteria were grown to an OD 400 of 0.1 to 0.2 at 37°C in CTM pH 7, and then frozen in 10% glycerol. Bacteria were thawed, centrifuged and resuspended in CTM pH 8. 50 ng/ml. CSP was added and cells were incubated for 10 min at 37°C. The transforming DNA (0.01-0.05 ⁇ g/ml) was then added. Optimal DNA uptake was obtained by a 20 min incubation of the mixture at room temperature. The mixture was then diluted 1 :10 in CAT medium and incubated at 37 0 C for 2 h to allow chromosome segregation and phenotypic expression. Transformants were selected by plating in appropriate conditions and individual colonies were taken for analysis.
- Plasmid pTCV-Tase was electroprated in S. agalactiae NEM316 to give "Sa NEM-Tase". This new low copy vector plasmid directs synthesis of the transposase in S. agalactiae and can be readily lost following subculture at 40 0 C in the absence of antibiotic selective pressure.
- the strain "Sa NEM-Tase” was then electroporated with suicide plasmids containing Hima ⁇ inverted repeats flanking a kanamycin cassette and one of the 80-bp oligonucleotide signature tags kindly given by V.
- Pelicic (Geoffrov et al.2003 Genome research 13:391-398). Bacteria were allowed to recover 3h in TH with 0.25M sucrose at 37°C and then plated onto TH plates containing kanamycin. Thus, only bacteria that have undergone in vivo transposition events were selected.
- Linkers were ligated to digested DNA, and then the insertion sites were amplified with AmpliTaq Gold DNA polymerase (PE Applied Biosystem) using LMP1 and ISR of SEQ ID N°15 (5'- CGCTCTTGAAGGGAACTATGTTGA-3') or ISL of SEQ ID N°16 (5'- AATCATTTGAAGGTTGGTACTATA-3'), outward primer internal to the mini- transposon.
- PCR products were gel purified and directly sequenced using ISL or ISL as primer. Sequence homology searches were performed using BLASTN against the streptococcal sequences present in the databases .
- S. pneumoniae deletion mutants were achieved by transforming wild type strain with pUC19 plasmid in which was cloned a PCR product containing the aphA-3 cassette flanked by the 5' and 3' 90-pb of the gene of interest.
- GBS NEM316 and derivative mutants were grown to exponential phase in broth culture.
- 200 ⁇ l of a bacterial suspension of 3.10 7 CFU/ml were administered by intravenous injection to groups of eight mice (6.10 6 CFU/mouse).
- Exact inoculum numbers were determined by plating 10-fold dilutions of the suspension on TH agar plates immediately after inoculation.
- mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation. The abdominal cavities of the mice were aseptically opened, and the livers were removed. Livers were homogenized with a tissue homogenizer (Heidolph) in 1 ml of sterile 0.9% NaCI, and 10-fold serial dilutions were plated on TH agar plates to determine bacterial loads.
- tissue homogenizer Heidolph
- Pneumococcus infection was carried out in a similar manner except that bacterial inocula contained 3.10 2 CFU/mouse in a volume of 100 ⁇ l. Virulence analysis was based on recovery of CFU in lungs and blood at 44h postinfection.
- transposase-containing plasmid included a thermo sensitive replication origin that permitted an efficient lost of the plasmid at non-permissive temperature.
- a library of signature-tagged insertion mutants of S. agalactiae was constructed as described, electroporating a suicide vector with the tagged transposon into a strain expressing the transposase.
- Hind ⁇ 11 -digested DNA of 15 randomly picked transformants obtained from a single electroporation experiment was analysed by Southern blotting using the aphA- 3 cassette as a probe. A single hybridizing fragment was detected for each mutant indicating that a unique transposition event has occurred for a given mutant. Moreover, the size of the hybridising DNA fragments was different in each case, from 2 kb up to 10 kb in size ( Figure 1), suggesting a random insertion of the transposon into the chromosome of GBS. Similar results could be obtained with by Southern analysis of EcoRI-digested chromosomal DNA.
- colistin In common with other polymixins, colistin is rapidly bactericidal and exerts its effect by acting as a cationic detergent, causing disruption of the integrity of the bacterial cell membrane, with leakage of intracellular contents and cell death (Catchpole CR et al, 1997, j. antimic. chem.). Colistin minnics the effets of antimicrobial cationic peptides of innate immunity.
- mutants showing an increased sensitivity to colistin might have a transposon insertion in a gene implicated in the structure of the envelope.
- 41 mutant strains were identified as being more sensitive to colistin since they were unable to grow at a concentration of 256 ⁇ g/ml in opposition to the wild type strain (CMI > 1024 ⁇ g/ml).
- Novobiocin was chosen as second antibiotic to select mutants presenting defects in their outer membrane.
- This hydrophobic antibiotic need to pass through the cell wall of the bacteria in order to reach its target: the bacterial type Il topoisomerases DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, thus alteration of the cell-wall could lead to an increase of sensitivity to novobiocin, as well as mutants of the DNA metabolism.
- Screening for sensitivity to novobiocin has been previously used to select cell wall defective mutant in gram positive bacteria (Lui et al. 1999 PNAS). In this manner, 155 mutant clones were identified as being more sensitive to novobiocin, 46 of these were also more sensitive to colistin.
- the insertions sites of the transposon in the colistin and/or novobiocin sensitive clones were determined by LM-PCR and sequencing (see Materials and Methods). Using the genome sequence database obtained from Pasteur, mutated ORFs were identified. Thus, it was observed that the 170 mutant strains presenting a defect for growth in presence of 256 ⁇ g/ml colistin and/or 1 ⁇ g/ml novobiocin correspond to 89 ORFs (Table 2).
- mutants with decrease liver dissemination suggest a role of these chromosomal loci in the virulence of GBS.
- a specific deletion was created in 10 genes by allelic replacement in the chromosome of GBS to generate isogenic mutant Mutants of GBS were injected to mice and bacterial clearance in the liver was measured. As shown in figure 4, all deletion mutants of exhibited a reduced bacterial count relative to the wild type. These results were comparable to those obtained with insertion mutant confirming specific linkage between mutated gene and hypo-virulent phenotype.
- genes identified to be important for the virulence of GBS could be grouped in various classes (Table 2).
- Gbs1787 showed significant homology to cydA of mycobacterium smegmatis.
- CydA encodes a subunit of cytochrome bd quinol oxidase. It is involved in energy transducing respiration in many prokaryote including E.coli (copper PA J.bact. 1990) and bacillus species (Winstedt et al. J.bact. 1998).

- Annotation of GbsO582 and gbs2100 revealed the presence of a DHH motif. This domain composed of one aspartate and two histidine residues was associated with proteins of phosphodiesterase function including E. coil protein RecJ (Han ES Nucleic Acids Res.
- Gbs0307 gene product belongs to the eukaryotic-type serine/threonine kinase family. Serine/threonine kinases were present in various gram-positive bacteria including pknB of mycobacterium tuberculosis (Av-Gav et al. AIA 1999). Gbs307 has been characterized as stk1 in GBS, a kinase that phosphorylate various substrates on serine and threonine residues (JinH et al. J MoI Biol. 2006; Rajagopal L et al. J Biol Chem. 2003; Raiagopal L et al. MoI Microbiol. 2005).
- GbsO653 was firstly identified as part of a genetic locus required for GBS ⁇ - hemolysin activity (Pritzlaff CA et al. Mol.mic. 2001). Protein, as member of the cyl operon, corresponded to CyIH in its N-terminus region and CyII constitute the C- terminal of the protein. GbsO653 encode product with homology to ketoacyl-ACP synthase and had significant homology to fabF product of E.coli implicated in the fatty acid synthesis pathway. In S.agalactiae, expression of the cyl operon was shown to be tightly regulated by CovR/S two-component system (Lamv MC et al. MoI. mic. 2004)
- GBS genes with the exception of gbs1787, matched in the genome of related Group A streptococci (S.pneumoniae and S. pyogenes) as well as in genome of some more distant species such as S. aureus, E.faecalis or B.anthracis. (Table 4).

- GBS 0307 is a bacterial Serine/threonine kinase catalysing the phosphorylation of diverse proteins, the nature of which is still in debate (an histone-like protein for S. pyogenes, an inorganic pyrophosphatase for S.agalactiae).
- GBS 0307 assays as described in the literature are essentially radioactivity-based (Journal of Molecular Biology, 2006, 357(5), p.1351 -1372 and Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003, Vol. 278, 16, p.14429-14441).
